Ooh, I’m guessing this was an incorrect attempt at back compat, right? So until now the HTMLDocument global value appeared to actually be an instance of an HTMLDocument?

Not quite, the general pattern for a lot of DOM types is a var with an interface - as that's globally extendable and generally represents the runtimey flexiness of JS. This still represented the 'classlike' ness if you will, kind surprised that we didn't get a constructor though

That’s not what this says though... this var doesn’t have a constructor-ish type like the one added back by the PR, it has an instance-ish type. There’s no class-likeness here, which is why ant-design had an error.

Wait, this really should be declare var HTMLDocument: typeof Document; and then things should be okay.

I think I’d be ok with that approach, but personally don’t see a strong reason to remove HTMLDocument (or even to mark it deprecated)—I must be missing the original context.

HTMLDocument is not defined as a separate interface anymore by the HTML spec and served as a legacy alias of Document. But since both Firefox and Chrome haven't implemented things as the spec says, maybe this also make sense as-is.

/** @deprecated This is a legacy alias of `navigator`. */
declare var clientInformation: Navigator;
/** Returns true if the window has been closed, false otherwise. */
